There must be an angel

I like to hang around graveyards; spooky, derilct Victorian ones, full of hidden paths, secret tombs and overgrown ivy. I was a bit of a goth during my teenage years, that must be why.

In other news, we had an unexpected vistor to the garden on Sunday. A very friendly racing pigeon who decided he needed a break on his flight back to Cheltenham (from goodness knows where – I googled his number). It was strange being able to get so close to a bird, but so sweet to have him eat food from our hands. After eating, drinking and having a little nap he decided to continue on his way – I hope he got home OK!

    There is this graveyard near a church quite close by and I have always wanted to go and visit and take some pictures. Maybe soon!

    Me too, I love cemetaries, mausoleums, and big old grave stones. These are beautiful ~ esp. the angel.
